Le Manoir Nord

About this property

The 18th-century Le Manoir Nord sleeps up to 12 guests. It includes beautiful gardens, a heated swimming pool and a tennis court. The Manoir is located a few minutes from the ancient town walls and market of Montreuil, and a short drive from the golf clubs, shops, restaurants and brilliant beaches of Le Touquet.

With 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, the house and grounds are stylish, comfortable and perfect for family holidays. Wi-Fi and Sky are included.

The house dates back to the 18th century but was extensively remodeled 100 years later as well as being more recently redecorated and wonderfully restored.

In the 1920s and 1930s Le Touquet was one of the most glamorous holiday destinations in Europe, frequented by royalty, the rich and famous. Today this is reflected in the grand hotels, casino, championship golf courses and innumerable restaurants nearby.

The huge sandy beaches provide a welcome tranquillity. Aside from golf, the visitor can be served at the sailing centre, two equestrian centres and even a sand-yachting school.

The house itself is 2km outside Montreuil, which is an ancient fortified town. Still contained within its enormous walls, the town has hardly been touched for two centuries. Small shops, cafes and restaurants are plentiful and there is an excellent market on Saturday mornings in the main square.

Beyond Montreuil lies the beautiful countryside of the 'Seven Valleys' region with its charming small villages and bustling market towns. There are wonderful walks and the rivers provide for fishing as well as some exciting canoeing. For the adventurous, Paris is close enough for a day trip.

The Manoir is less than one hour's drive from Calais. The Eurostar train stops at Calais four times a day and a car can be arranged by Oliver's VIP Concierge Team to pick you up from the station. Alternatively there is a daily scheduled flight from Kent to Le Touquet.
